Bump, so the inconsistent bitch can avoid it again.


"Inconsistent b&tch".... now there's a new one (needing that eyeroll icon again, Rick? Are you there?)

All I did was give ol' Andy's opinion. Doubtless many of those who opted to fight and die to preserve the Union thirty years later were familiar with his line of reasoning.

And I never made an issue of the Texians' "right" one way or another.

...anyways take a chill pill, I'm 'back in the Barrio' here in my public school 'echo chamber'..... wink

HALLLLOOOOOOO............... HALLLLOOOOOOOO...........

PLEEEEEESE DON'T MISSPELL 'TEXAS' AGAAAAAAIN...........

You've stated that Tejas had a right of secession for self-determination and self-governance.

But, please continue citing a tyrannical president; it serves your position so well. Feel free to cite Obama next, as the philosophical lineage is quite clear.
